"I loved having our reception at the aquarium, and the guests found it unique and entertaining. I couldn't have enjoyed my wedding more and the setting was perfect. All the guests were well taken care of from golf cart service to comfortable guidance as the events moved from one location to another inside the aquarium. I would suggest this location to anyone planning an event in Charleston! You'll have a unique setting and wonderful pictures!" - Nicole Thompson
